how do I love u

    How do I love thee?
    
    Let me count the ways.
    
    I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
    
    My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
    
    For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
    
    
    I love thee to the level of everyday's
    
    Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
    
    I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
    
    I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
    
    I love thee with the passion put to use
    
　　　
    In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
    
    I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
    
    With my lost saints--
    
    I love thee with the breath,smiles, tears, of all my life!--
    
    and, if God choose,
    
    I shall but love thee better after death.
